Several Qing soldiers on the city wall blocked a long ladder, sharp long knives, sharp spears stabbed indiscriminately, from time to time there were Lu soldiers were stabbed, screaming and falling down, the soldiers behind while holding rattan cards to resist, while fighting back with weapons in their hands, the elite soldiers on the warship Wangdou, seeing that their side was blocked, could not get to the city, immediately bent the bow and arrows, condescending to shoot by name.

Two Qing soldiers were shot over by arrows, and the Qing soldiers behind immediately filled up, and the two sides fought endlessly on the city, one after another Lu soldiers roared and pounced on the city wall, some of him was stabbed to death and fell, but more jumped on the city wall.

Just as he was about to open the situation, a rush of footsteps came, and the Qing soldiers of the brigade climbed the city wall from the stairs on the inner side of the city wall, which was Liu Qingtai's men and horses drawn from the south gate.

This group joined, and the disadvantage of the Qing soldiers at the head of the city was gradually offset, and the city wall of Nantong was not wide, and now it was almost crowded with people cutting each other.

For a time, the spears on the city wall went back and forth, the sharp spears broke through the armor, the war knives flew up and down, and the cold light flickered intermittently to interrupt people's hands and feet, taking people's lives.

A Qing soldier was slipped through his throat with a knife, fell on his back on the city wall, covered his neck with his hands, and wanted to scream, but he could only make a cooing sound from his throat, blood flowed out from between his fingers, his face was twisted, and his body shook a few times, and he suddenly stiffened and completely lost his breath.

Everywhere on the city walls, people were cut down and stabbed to death.

The soldiers of Lu roared angrily, constantly pouring up the city wall from the boat, slashing and killing each other with the Qing soldiers on the city wall, blood and flesh splashed, from time to time there were clouds of blood mist, and the dense crowd was crowded on the city, so that both sides could not dodge, and could only slash and stab the enemy with knives and guns in a frenzy, the scene was tragic, not the old pawn could not bear such a fight.

The drums of the war outside the city changed again, and the elite Lu army of 1,000 people immediately stood up, and after the generals mobilized a few words, they saw the middle order flag waving, and then moved towards the canal and entered the siege battle.

At this time, Zhang Mingzhen didn't know how many men and horses Xie Qian had invested in the attack on Beicheng, but the elite Lu army of 4,000 people had been invested in the attack on the eastern city, plus the 2,000 people who dared to fight the Gaoyuan army, which was far more than the Qing soldiers guarding the eastern city, but the advantage of the Lu army was still not obvious, but there was a warship that could no longer control the fire and burned on the canal.

For the Lu army, the boat is the foundation of the foothold, which is also the reason why Zhang Mingzhen wants to use the elite to attack the city, if the cannon fodder attack, did not consume the Qing army, but let the Qing soldiers burn the warship, then the Lu army will lose a lot, and without the ship, the army can only honestly fill the river, which is too time-consuming, and it is in the heart of Duoduo.

Zhang Mingzhen put down the clairvoyant mirror, listened to the shouts of killing from the city, watched the new troops continue to be killed, and suddenly turned his head to the general next to him and said: "If it goes on like this, it will become a war of fuel." Xie Qian was ordered to attack Beicheng more violently, and not to let the Qing troops draw troops to support Dongcheng. ”

"No!" When a chess and card officer heard the order, he responded with a fist, then immediately turned around, galloped to the side of the war horse, turned over the horse, and galloped away.

Zhang Mingzhen looked back at the generals around him, and then ordered: "Order Ruan Jin, let him lead people to break through the collapse, kill the city gate from the left from the city, and open the city gate!" Liu Shixun, you take the 500 governor's standard and cut down the drawbridge for the governor. ”

"No!" A black-faced general behind him immediately responded, flicked his cloak, and turned to transfer troops.

On the tower of a warship, Ruan Jin was wielding a knife to command the men and horses to fight in the city, when he suddenly heard the chess and card officials coming to give orders, and his eyes fell on the collapsed city wall.

It was a three-zhang wide slope, and many bricks and stones were rolled into the moat, but because the Lu army did not fill the river and attack the city, the Lu army could not pour into the city on a large scale from here, but it was indeed an important passage into the city.

Ruan Jin got the general's order, immediately beat the small drum, waved the flag, and commanded the two sides of the collapsed city wall, the Lu soldiers pressed in from both sides, and then ordered an elite soldier to strengthen the frontal onslaught from the warship facing the collapsed place, forming a three-sided attack.

He himself carried his sword, beckoned his guards to rush up the ladder and kill him at the head of the city.

At this time, the fierce battle of the city gate has begun, Liu Shixun with five hundred governors, storming the city gate, occupying a section of the city wall, the soldiers are fighting in the city, Liu Shixun jumped on the drawbridge that was pulled obliquely by the iron cable, he stepped on the drawbridge, kicked the city wall, just took out the short axe, an arrow hit his shoulder socket, the axe in his hand almost got out of his hand, he hurriedly changed his hand, gritted his teeth and cut down, sparks splashed.

Seeing this, the Qing soldier wanted to shoot again, but as soon as he pulled out his bow and arrow, a stray arrow struck, hit the throat, and immediately fell to the ground holding his throat.

With Zhang Mingzhen's continuous increase in troops, there are not many Qing soldiers on the city wall, although they occupy the advantage of geographical advantages, but the advantage is not obvious under the role of the building ship, and in the case of the soldier ratio is not as good as the Lu army, it gradually can not withstand the endless attacks of the Lu army.

Especially at the collapse site, facing pressure from three directions, the dead Qing soldiers rolled down the slope, and a high pile of corpses had been piled up.

Seeing this, Liu Qingtai found that the Lu army had strengthened the attack on the collapse and the city gate, and quickly understood Zhang Mingzhen's intentions, but he understood it, but his troops were not enough.

10,000 Qing soldiers, focusing on defending the east city wall, there were 3,000 men and horses to defend at the beginning, there were 2,500 people in the north, and more than 2,200 people in each of the other two gates, he had transferred 2,000 people from the south, only more than 200 people guarded the south gate, and now they can only transfer the defenders of the west gate, but the west gate is not as good as the south gate, and there are Gaoyuan bandits outside the city.

At this time, Liu Qingtai was protected, and suddenly a Qing soldier next to him was overturned by the arrow, the situation was critical, he saw the Lu soldier waving a rattan card, blocking a few stabbing spears, followed by Gao Yuanjun took the opportunity to stab the spear through, the head of the spear stabbed the Qing soldier in the abdomen, the Qing soldier pushed down the commanding heights of the slope, and then kicked out, and the corpse rolled down.

At this time, a member of the Lu army general also killed the slope from the side, as soon as he jumped down, he beheaded the commander of the Qing army with a knife, these Lu troops instead occupied the commanding heights of the slope, formed a gun array and stabbed downward, the Qing soldiers on the back slope could not resist, and the killed retreated.

Seeing this, Liu Qingtai couldn't take care of much, and hurriedly ordered: "Quick, transfer a thousand people from the West Gate." ”

A personal soldier received the order and hurriedly pressed his waist knife to go down to the city, but after only a few steps, he was shot to death by the Lu army on Wangdou.

Seeing that this personal soldier didn't need to be ordered, he hurriedly walked down the city wall.

At this time, at the city gate, suddenly a loud "bang" sounded, and the chain that held the suspension bridge was cut off by Liu Shixun and others, and the suspension bridge fell heavily, and more than ten Lu soldiers also fell down with the suspension bridge.

Several soldiers hurriedly got up, and Liu Shixun, who had a few arrow shafts inserted in his body, dragged back, and many Gao Yuanjun sitting on the ground had already stood up, and the moment they fell from the suspension bridge, they suddenly let out an earth-shattering cheer, pushing the crashing car to the city.

The roof leak was rained overnight, and many Lu troops had poured up from the collapse, and they attacked from top to bottom, but the Qing soldiers instead attacked on their backs, and were stabbed by spears a few times, so they were afraid to move forward and did not dare to climb up.

At this time, the general Ruan Jin, suddenly flew out of the rattan card in his hand, smashed several Qing soldiers' heads and broke the bloodstream, he immediately shouted, saw the opportunity and rushed down directly, the knife slashed wildly, covered in blood, the Lu army was inspired by the generals, and immediately opened their mouths to burst into cheers, roaring so that the Qing soldiers' necks shrank, and the Lu soldiers rushed down with weapons to fight.

This rushed down with a high head, coupled with the momentum and vigor, the Qing soldiers below were suddenly rushed back, and some Qing soldiers saw that they couldn't resist it, so they turned around and fled backwards.

For a while, hundreds of Lu troops rushed into the city from the collapse, and they did not chase the fleeing green battalion soldiers, Ruan Jin pointed at his sword and shouted, "City gate!" ”

The Lu army rushed along the street near the city wall to the city gate more than 200 paces away.

When Liu Qingtai saw this, his face turned white, and he sat on the ground with a slump of his buttocks, and several Qing soldiers hurriedly set him up, and a thousand general managers asked urgently: "My lord, what should I do now?" ”

Liu Qingtai, a literati who voted for the Qing Dynasty, naturally had no integrity at all, he sighed and made an excuse for himself, "How difficult the country is, it is the time to employ people, if you can hold Nantong in death, you can die, but if you die and it is useless, it is a vain death, not for the wise." ”

What he meant was that the city was estimated to be undefended, but he didn't want to die, and even if he died, he couldn't change the reality of the city's destruction, so he still had to leave a useful body. This is very consistent with the logic of reducing the literati to those who know the times as handsome, and seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

He pushed away the guards who were supporting him, and said to several generals with righteous words: "Everyone, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, the Qing Dynasty still needs us to serve, Nantong cannot be defended, it is better to leave a useful body, and break through immediately!" ”

Several officers of the Green Battalion breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, the tragedy of this battle had reached the limit of the Green Battalion soldiers, and if they continued to fight, they would have no reason to convince themselves.

Zhou Qian, who was on the side, heard that Liu Qingtai was going to break through, but he was anxious, and as soon as his mouth suddenly appeared, he said Duoduo's words, "My lord, Lord Yu confessed that if you can't hold it for a month, you will kill your whole family." ”

Liu Qingtai didn't expect that he would burst out with such a sentence at this time, his face turned red, and he was almost angry to death.

It just so happened that at this time, the return of the troops who went to the west gate was fought with the Lu army who rushed to the city gate, but it was said that a thousand people were transferred, but less than half of them actually came, Liu Qingtai knew that something must have happened, and he thought that he couldn't get through the current difficulties, let alone what to keep for a month. This couldn't be done at all, and he suddenly fainted.

When the generals of the green battalion saw this, they were stunned, and suddenly one of them said: "Lord Fang Cai said that he is not afraid of running out of firewood to keep the green mountains, so let's break through immediately." ”

Several people reacted, set up Liu Qingtai, and suddenly dispersed, and Zhou Qian stomped his feet, and he also went down to the city in a hurry.
